Hmm I see a lot of people voting for the Electrolux Model XXX and Model G. I have both...need to pull them both out and compare noise levels! The XXX is a bit noisier when it’s afterfilter is removed as my afterfilter is likely one of the originals so I pulled it out as it seemed kind of icky. Both of these machines are so quiet that the suction sound from the tools can be louder than the motors. I can see how the hospital G someone mentions could be even quieter...with that big filter on the back it would muffle the noise even further than the standard G metal back ends pre cordwinder do.
I have to say I’m disappointed with Aerus’s modern day classic Lux and Lux Legacy canisters...they are noisy making that high pitched whistling sound most cheap vacuums make in the last 20 years.
Noisiest vacuum anyone?...maybe a new thread...my Brother has a giant Rigid Shop vac, horrifying the noise must wear hearing protection....I told him to give the thing away and buy a shop vac brand...he doesn’t use it that often due to the horrific noise even with the optional muffler attachment which seems to do nothing.
